Answer:

And we can solve for y and we got:

And using condition (1) we can solve for x and we got:

So then the minimum cost for this case would be:

Explanation:
For this case the graph attached illustrate the problem for this case
We know that the total area is 60000, so then we have:

If we solve for x we got:
(1)
Now we can define the cost function like this:


We can use the condition (1) and if we replace in the cost function we have:

Since we need to minimize the cost, we can derivate the function in terms of y and we got:

And we can solve for y and we got:

And using condition (1) we can solve for x and we got:

So then the minimum cost for this case would be:

Answer:
At par
Explanation:
From the question we are informed about Road Hazards with has 12-year bonds outstanding. The interest payments on these bonds are sent directly to each of the individual bondholders. In this case these direct payments are a clear indication that the bonds can accurately be defined as being issued at par. A par bond can be regarded as bond that is been sold at the exact face value, most mind sells at the face value of $1000, that $1000 is the face value, any par bond usually give an investor a yield which matches the amount of coupon that is associated to the bond.

Answer:
Equity Beta = 1.1413
Explanation:
The formula to find the asset beta is
Asset Beta = Equity Beta/(1+(1-tax rate)(Debt/Equity))
We will put the values given in the question in this formula
Asset Beta = 0.8
Tax rate = 0.36
Debt = 0.40
Equity = 0.60
0.8=Equity Beta/(1+(0.64)(0.40/0.60)
0.8=Equity Beta/1+0.4266
0.8=Equity Beta/1.4266
1.4266*0.8= Equity Beta
Equity Beta = 1.1413
Answer:

Dec 31 Rent expense $3450 Dr
Prepaid Rent $3450 Cr
2.
Oct 1 Prepaid Rent $13800 Dr
Cash $13800 Cr
3.
Year end balances at 31 December:
Rent Expense = $3450
Prepaid Rent = $10350
Explanation:
Assumption: The year end for the business in on 31 December.
1.
The rent is paid in advance thus it is an asset. On 31 December the adjusting entry will be made under the accrual principle to match the current period's rent expense and record it in the period to which it belongs to. Thus we will credit the rent expense for 3 months i.e. October, November and December. We will credit the asset account that is Prepaid Rent.
2.
The prepayment of rent is creating an asset account in the title of prepaid rent. The entry would be to record the asset prepaid rent by the full amount of the rent prepaid and credit the other asset account through which the payment is being made.
3.
The adjusted year end balance for rent expense will be the rent expense paid for this period that is $1150 * 3 = 3450
The balance in the prepaid rent account after adjusting the rent expense will be,
Prepaid rent = 13800 - 3450 = $10350
Answer:
- 10%
- (will increase in the short run) but in the long run it will return to the potential output level.
Explanation:
If the money supply is increased by 10%, the inflation rate will also increase by 10%.
In the short run the economy will be able to produce an output which is higher than the potential GDP, but once the inflation rate catches up, both the unemployment rate will increase and the real GDP will return to its potential output level.
